Today I am celebrating LadyBug Blog’s 3-year Blogiversary! In early 2015 I decided to enter the world of blogging and as I was getting ready to launch, I selected May 10, 2015 since I liked the pattern (5-10-15) and knew it would be an easy date to remember.

In the first year, I was able to post on a regular basis and this laid a good foundation for my blog. In the second year, I was not able to write and post as often as I would have liked and honestly missed the creative outlet this blog provides. Now as I wrap up the third year, I am still not posting as often as I would like and am striving to get this back on track. It’s not that I do not have many ideas of what to write about that I believe you’ll enjoy reading – it’s more that I have realized I need to establish a consistent schedule for writing, editing, and posting.

Let’s take a look back at some highlights from this last year and all-time.
